Anyone out there run their SWR 750X at 2.6 ohms?

I recently purchased an SWR 750X. I am running it at 4 ohms through an Ampeg SVT 410hlf 500 watt cabinet that I owned before I purchased the head. Before getting the SWR I had a Hartke 300 watt head and it just was not cutting it. Even though the 750X is loud, for my purposes I need a bit more volume. I was thinking about purchasing an 8 ohm 2 x 10 cabinet to add to my rig. But before I do it I was wondering if there are any of you out there who run this amp at 2.6 ohms? How does it sound? Does it get really hot? Would you recommend doing this?
Any other tips would be helpful.

is this an SWR SWR or a Fender SWR??
if it is an SWR SWR then you will not have a problem.
SWR rated that amp to be run as low as 2 ohms so you should not be concerned, just don't block the fan inlets and outlets and you will be fine.
and yeah your volume will go up quite a bit.
If it is a Fender SWR you can expect that Fender will institute cost cutting and the first victims will be the quality (read expensive) parts.
For instance, original SWR's used Mercury Magnetics transformers (from California) http://www.mercurymagnetics.com/
These are the Ferarri of transformers, real clean, custom wound, little or no spurious harmonics generated, quality laminations, voidless Iron cores etc,... look for Fender to replace them with something cheeper (like Taiwan or China), I'd bet one of my basses on it.

My little SWR still has the "Mercury Magnetics" transformer in it and it is only a couple years old. I'll take the DP Custom from what ya got listed.

I ran my 750x at 4 ohms and it got quite hot. The reason being that SWR uses an aluminum chassis for better heat transfer. The chassis acts like a heat sink. I never ran it at 2.6 ohms and I wouldn't ever want to.
